Preparation and Usage
Remove the mussels from the packaging, decant into a colander and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Rinse thoroughly under fresh running cold water for a few minutes. Agitate and tap firmly to stimulate any open mussels to close.
The protective atmosphere can make mussels “sleepy” and slow to react to the agitation. If any mussels are gaping widely at this stage, close the mussel between your fingers for 2 seconds, release and observe. Does the mussel stay closed when released or open slowly and begin to close back over? This suggests the mussel is alive. If the mussel continues to gape widely and shows no sign of closing over, the mussel is likely dead. Discard any mussels identified as dead.
Remove any threadlike fibres from the live mussels by firmly pulling away using a blunt knife, and if desired, scrape off any barnacles.
Mussels that remained closed during preparation may reopen again before being used for cooking. This is perfectly natural.
